I was sent a message by rachelas on YouForMe back on 26/12/2016. Red alert 1: she asks to talk by e-mail. I see the message on 07/01/2017 and reply by e-mail as requested. The next day I get a very sincere-sounding reply from her. Red alert 2: she says she's in Dakar, Senegal for her thesis. What was also curious was that she didn't reply to my question asking where her nickname came from, but I figured she forgot about it.

I replied the next day with some questions in order to continue the conversation. The 14th was supposedly her birthday, so I sent another e-mail message with birthday wishes, and a link to an image with a birthday cake. I finally got a reply today, on the 17th... that wasn't a reply. It was the exact same e-mail message I got from her previously, but with the age updated.

The image of the birthday cake was hosted on my personal website, so I checked the logs, and yes, she clicked on it right before sending me the e-mail message:

Looking up the IP address, I could see where this person was really located.
